Privacy Policy

This page explains how we handle information gathered through thedogwelfarealliance.co.uk. We keep things straightforward — no dense legal language, just a clear account of what we collect, why we collect it, and what your rights are.

What We Collect

When you browse our site, basic analytics data is recorded automatically — things like which pages were visited, how long a session lasted, and the general region a visit came from. No names or email addresses are captured through browsing alone. If you reach out to us directly — via our contact page or by email — we retain whatever you choose to share, such as your name and message, solely to respond to you.

Why We Collect It

Analytics help us understand which reviews and guides are genuinely useful so we can improve them. Contact details are used only to reply to your query. We do not sell, rent, or trade personal data to any third party, and we never have.

Cookies and Analytics

We use cookies to support site functionality and to gather aggregated usage statistics. No cookie on this site identifies you personally. You can manage or block cookies at any time through your browser settings — most browsers include a straightforward guide in their help section. Disabling cookies will not prevent you from reading our content.

Links to External Casinos

Our reviews and comparison tables contain links to casino operators. Once you leave our site, their own privacy policies govern how your data is handled. We have no control over those practices, so we strongly encourage you to read an operator's privacy notice before you register an account with them.

How Long We Keep Data

Analytics data is retained in aggregated, anonymised form. Any personal information sent through a contact form or email is kept only for as long as it takes to resolve your query, after which it is deleted. We do not archive correspondence beyond that point.

Your Rights

You have the right to request a copy of any personal data we hold about you, and the right to ask us to delete it. To make either request, please use our contact page. We will respond promptly and without charge.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this page from time to time to reflect changes in how we operate or in applicable guidance. The current version is always the one published here, so it is worth checking back occasionally.

This site is strictly for readers aged 18 and over. If gambling is causing concern, free support is available from GamCare and BeGambleAware.
